It's how MANY of us build our collections or for some to maintain some profitability in their business.

Hey Tom
It's going to be very difficult to contemplate every post on the board with respect to our anonymity vs privacy policy. It is a policy but unless it's very obviously controversial I don't want to step in. The poster has already asked me to handle the outing of his ebay id, which I won't do.

If I am selling something and you say that you think it's too much, I am not sure that constitutes me (a moderator) jumping in? It's certainly debatable but I do have a day job.. ....and lately the board has been taking up more time than I like, in the disciplinary department.....I guess it's just case by case....put yourself in my shoes, would you want to have to "eagle eye" the board 7x24? Don't get me wrong, when it's obvious, the rules will be enforced....I haven't been making too many friends on the board lately but that is the way it goes.

edited to also say, I think the seller is a great guy and extremely reputable.....
